DWG terrain model format

Autocad DWG-, DXF- and DXB-files. Reading recognizes type automatically and writing format is selected by extension (DWG, DXF or DXB).

Writing uses surface code T1 as a default layer name. If the layer name contains illegal characters (<>/\":;?*|=',), they are converted to underscores. Reading takes surface name from the first triangle and removes all triangles from other layers.

Version

DWG file version used for writing.

Area coding

When writing with area coding, each triangle inside closed breakline uses line's code as a layer. Triangles outside of these areas use default layer 9211. Without area coding model surface is used as a layer for all triangles.

All triangle layers

Reads all triangles regrdless their layer.

Layer state

Allows reading of layers turned off, frozen or locked. These are skipped by default. Reading invisible layers reads also items flagged as invisible.

Explode, Depth

Explodes INSERT and MESH elements. Default depth of one explodes only first level. Bigger values continue exploding objects inside already exploded blocks.

If the exploded element contains objects in layer 0, their layer is set to the layer of exploded object.
